Tranquility is a terrific alpaca in her own right; she reveals not only conformational, but fleece qualities that one would seek in a solid foundation female. Add to this her wonderful history of top notch production and you have an enticing package to consider!
Her lineage is terrific too; Tranquility is a Snowmass Royal Rose daughter, known by many as "the maker of champions who makes champions": See her sires impressive resume below!
Tranquility is a terrific mom.. the most conscientious of all the dams here at Island Alpaca. She is the most watchful, and nurturing to her cria.
We are not excited to sell her, as she has produced some marvelous offspring. We have two beautiful cria at the farm, Frida and Calvin, that will remain in our herd, carrying on her terrific genitics.
Bred to Simba for a late summer cria. *Please do take note of his extensive award history.
Sire:
Snowmass Andean Bronze
Andean Bronze is that exceptional dark colored alpaca whose fiber is like velvet. With a four year histogram of 20.5, 4.0, 19.6, 2.0, he has fiber stats that surpass the vast majority of his light colored brethren. He has shown the ability to consistently pass those attributes onto his offspring who have been a dominant force on the show circuit for a while now. The premier brown Herdsire of the North American Alpaca Stud with very good reason!
